Perfect CEO

Chapter 511

“When can you extract the bullet?”

Patrick couldn't take it anymore. The bullet would induce pain from time to time, which was so immense that even a grown man like him could not bear it.

He certainly felt like he was only a step away from death.

Kevin's expression took on a slightly darker hue as he heaved a deep sigh.

“Pat, the surgery is extremely complicated. Please wait for a bit more.”

“Isn't this akin to waiting for the grim reaper?”

Kevin was dazed momentarily before retorting, “What nonsense are you spouting? I will not let you die.”

After saying that, he added, “Rest assured. I will definitely finish the surgery.”

Right then, Kevin's assistant entered and handed Patrick a new phone.

“Mr. Lowen, Mr. Chavez bought you a new phone because yours was broken last night.”

It wasn't until this moment that Patrick realized why his phone never rang. So it was broken.


Knowing Kevin had already transferred all the data from his old phone to the new one, Patrick took the phone over and viewed every application. Sure enough, everything was intact.

Fortunately, he usually used his business laptop or tablet instead of his phone for work.

He instinctively clicked on his chat with Gwendolyn and noticed she didn't send any messages.

The only thing that comforted him was the couple of missed calls from her.

At the sight of Patrick staring at his phone, Kevin asked, “Do you want me to tell Gwen that you're unwell?”

Although Lucy was there earlier, Kevin reckoned she wouldn't dare to tell Gwendolyn about Patrick's condition. After all, Lucy always listened well to Lucas.

Patrick lifted his eyes, looked at Kevin, and muttered coldly, “There's no need for that.”

“Do you want me to destroy that brat Zayden then?”

Patrick's expression darkened even more. “No.”

Kevin could tell Patrick was in a very bad mood.

Although he managed to subdue Patrick's headache, he reckoned it would be difficult to relieve the pain in the latter's heart.

After rising to his feet, Kevin advised flatly, “Your condition matters the most now. You should worry about your problem with her after you recover.”

Kevin's kind reminder was, however, met with Patrick's silence. The latter started making calls and arrangements with the phone in his hands.

After Gwendolyn hung up, she saw Suzanne, who had arrived upstairs. The latter poured Zayden a cup of coffee and stood obediently behind him.

Suzanne simply stood there without a word or a movement.

She would look like a doll if it weren't for her flickering, huge eyes.

Gwendolyn sat opposite Zayden. “Zayden, the doctor is in the guest room now. I'll go with you for a checkup. What do you say?”

“Will you marry me then?”
